"I initially searched for traces of Walther Ruttmann's movie Berlin - Die Synfonie der Grosstadt. Though today's Berlin visually has mere echoes of that town, I could still sense the magic and energy wich drives the city to this day. Berlin now is a vivid mix of new and old, straight and twisted... an undiminished tolerance for new ideas and all ways of life, which makes this city work." Andreas H. Bitesnich
